Thanks

kinda seems like more info is needed what to do with green wire, what wires connect to what on the ALT

[MicroCADDY]

I have
1 red thick wire HOT battery
1 blue wire
1 black wire

RED to B+
Blue to D+
black to ground


I have a feeling before i bought it & the guy had the 2700 engine it had an ALT
I got it with the 1600 w/ GEN he swapped in a week before shipping it.
No voltage reg was in the car. The shop i took it to hooked up a volt reg.

BTW i don't see any wiring under the back seat like the bugs. I have a THING

Do tell!!! (I say try to help someone else out who may have a similar issue. 'Pay it forward?', maybe 'give back'?...just my 2¢ )

I do this all the time. in this case i would pay my self back lol cause for once i figured it out on my own.

Case in point i was on the phone with a guy in TX from 10pm till 1am talking him through wiring up his whole MSD ignition for a mk1 with a mk2 swap & more. I got 4 hours sleep after that.
